Anyone catch this lpassage from tomorrow's WaPo:

That Republican official said polling for Bush showed him in a weaker position than some published polls, both nationally and in battlegrounds. In many of the key states, the official said, Bush is below 50 percent, and he is ahead or behind within the margin of sampling error -- a statistical tie.
"There's just no place where they're polling outside the margin of error so they can say, 'We have this state,' " the official said. "And they know that an incumbent needs to be outside the margin of error."
I'd be willing to bet this "official" is referring to Colorado and Nevada and possibly Ohio which are being heavily contested by the campaign, but published polling shows they aren't that close. And if those states are actually close, what to make of the bluer battlegrounds!
